News and Open Source Releases

Tails is a Debian-based distribution which connects users to the Internet via the Tor network for anonymous web browsing. Tails recently released an update, Tails 3.0.1, and some users have reported problems with the minor point release. "If you upgraded Tails 3.0 to 3.0.1 with an automatic upgrade you most likely are experiencing problems, one of the most serious being that Tor does not work which makes most Internet activity impossible. If you are affected you can repair your Tails 3.0.1 by doing a manual upgrade to 3.0.1." Affected users can work around the issue by following the manual upgrade instructions.
